Regenerative Energie
Most landfills contain organic wastes which produce landfill gas (LFG), containing methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2). Emission of CH4 from landfills is a serious environmental problem and is explicitly mentioned as a source for greenhouse gasses in the EU Sixth Environmental Action Plan. In the US as well as in Europe, one of the the largest anthropogenic CH4 emission originates from decomposition of waste in landfills making up 22-25% of the total anthropogenic CH4 emission. (USEPA, 2006; EEA, 2006).
Fakse landfill is a test site, where a full scale biocover system is to be relalized to demonstrate reduction of greenhouse gas emissions from landfills by facilitating biological methane oxidation. The site is covered with low permeable soil with high clay content. This was believed to lead to a highly heterogenous emission through the existing soil cover. The leachate collection system was also believed to be an important pathway for gas emission at the site. Using four gas production models and records on waste amounts and waste types deposited, the landfill gas production was calculated to be in the range from 0.6 – 1.3 million m

Die innerstaatliche Umsetzung des Pariser Klimaschutzübereinkommens
- ein Rechtsvergleich

Like all public international law treaties, the Paris Climate Accords rely on national law for their implementation. The success of the agreement therefore depends, to a large extent, on the stepstaken or not taken by national governments and legislators as well as on the instruments and mechanisms chosen for this task. Against this background, the present article compares different approaches to the implementation of the Paris Agreement, using court decisions as a means to assess their (legal) effectiveness.
